Synopsis:
Rangers Gene Autry and Frog Millhouse are on their way to solve the murder of old, half-blind Frank Martin when, nearing town, they are forced off the road by a coach, recklessly driven by Joan Martin, the old man's granddaughter. Upon reaching the town, Gene receives several high offers for a swayback horse in his possession, which, with a guitar string, is the only clue to the killer. These offers come from liveryman Hank Polk, Joan's sweetheart Lon Dillon, Martin's lawyer Henry Nolan, and his foster-son John Martin. All know the horse is the key to Martin's lost gold mine. Without letting anyone know who they are, Gene and Frog go to the Martin ranch to play for a dance, placing the horse in a barn with the intention of attracting the killer. The ruse works and Gene saves Joan's life, after tracking the murderer, locating the mine and bringing the slayer to justice.
